About Star Wars, not that you don't mind, obviously. Disney want to make more money, they are a business after all, and there are fans who do want to see more films so good for them. As a non-Star Wars fan, it doesn't bother me either way

No, it won't be shit. That's a great director/writer/cast combination for this reboot. Whedon doesn't let people down.

Not that I'm averse to seeing more of the SW universe but I have no interest in seeing any remakes.

You've made it clear you're against the idea of remakes. Me, I'm happy for every notable film ever to be remade. Why? Because it could be good, or it could be bad (as with any film). Either way, the original won't cease existing.

Don't everyone get too excited about Lucas NOT directing - let us not forget that in the (very) early stages of pre-production of the prequels, Lucas said he would only serve as producer. Fast forward a few years and the fucker not only produced, but also wrote and directed...

I don't mind the thought of more SW films, especially if George isn't directing them. I'd rather see something like a KotOR-era film than a continuation from the originals though (even though Thrawn could be kinda cool). And a remake is an awful idea

Star Wars Episode VII, if it gets made, will be about the adventures of Luke's adorable kid as he becomes a Jedi. He will be aided by CGI that shouts a lot. All the characters we love will be conspicuously absent, apart from C-3PO and R2-D2 because they're in everything.

Calling it now.

Great news. More Star Wars > Less Star Wars. Who doesn't want brand new SW motion pictures? The only negative is we have to wait until 2015.

Anyone who saw the prequels?

Yes, that makes perfect sense. Let's not do any more Terminator or Alien films because the third and fourth are shit.

I really need to stop using that smiley when I'm obviously trying to make a serious point.

But could I live without more Star Wars movies? Yes.

Same with Terminator and Alien.

Not sure how any fan of science fiction could say this. Terminator, Alien and Star Wars have such huge universes and ideas to explore. We've barely scratched the surface of their potential. What if the next Star Wars film turns out to be a masterpiece?

What if it turns out to be Caravan Of Courage 2?
